How old are you? Are you sexually active?

Sometimes all the blood isn't completely expelled during your period. Most likely what you have is old blood that is your body clearing out that is why it is dark red/black. It's not uncommon for this to happen. You didn't say how old you are but every female body is different and over time you will learn what is normal for you. The best idea is to always talk to your doctor or doctors' nurse when you have questions of this type because they know you and are familiar with you and things that are going on, such as what medications you are taking and so on. It's really important especially after you become sexually active to find a good doctor or gynecologist to become a regular patient of so that you have someone to see and to treat you on a regular basis. That way when things come up, you have someone to talk to and who can treat you without having to guess at your medical history. Good luck
